Why, what did he do?

Changed the qualification rules so that top-seeded countries must now face each other in the final qualifying round, thereby creating appreciably enhanced opportunities for advancement for those from lower-ranked leagues.

As a result teams like apoel, basel, bate and copehagen are spending mroe time in the Cl and El group stages and so are getting richer and stronger.

All 4 have a fair claim for being the best teams their countries have ever produced. You can add shamrock rovers and nefkhi batu to that, too. A fair few countries have had their best ever european club seasons since platini took over.
 
Oh dear

I actually liked Yobo quite a bit. Is that a controversial opinion to have on here or is he generally well liked?

Yobo was brilliant for his first coupla years for us. Our best defender at the time, and a sign of the even better quality defenders to come.

His performances eventually tired, the Prem got too fast for him, and his exit was very protracted. But I for one thank him for his excellent service to our club.

And even now at least he's playing in a European Semi-Final! More than can be said for any Everton player since 1985.

That's pretty much how I see him actually !

Ah right, nice one.

Always wished he was head of FIFA.
